The phrase which offended you includes the pronoun their which is a reference to deputies. This plural form includes the current deputies so I am entitled to have my block increased by a factor of 2 according to your formula. This leaves me entitled to 12 weeks rather the the 4 you offered. Please correct this at once.
As ever
Homely" starts at 2 and may be decreased by 1 if provoked, increased by 1 if uncivil toward a particular individual or group, particularly uncivil, or uncivil in multiple posts at same time, and increased by 2 if uncivil toward a deputy or deputies." The Word of B_b
